The Nebraska Alumni Association and Lincoln’s Zipline Brewing Company announced a new custom beer on Monday.Described as an "easy drinking American lager," the beer will be called “Dear Old Nebraska Brew” in a nod to the school’s traditional fight song Dear Old Nebraska U. The beer will be available initially on draft at the AKRS Champions Club and eventually available for retail purchase in other locations around the state.Zipline will donate one dollar from every case sold to support Nebraska alumni engagement programs.“This is one of the most exciting opportunities we’ve ever had as a company,” said Marcus Powers, a Zipline founder and University of Nebraska-Lincoln alumnus. “Two of our three owners are Nebraska alumni, and we’ve always had a great relationship with the Alumni Association. We like to stay close to our roots, and as an alum, myself, I am extremely proud to produce a beer to support all the great work the Alumni Association does to promote the University of Nebraska.”
